Our ODR Doors

1. DIAGNOSIS:

This door helps to access and resolve all emerging disputes in their formation stages. It is done remotely through what is termed “Silent Engagement”. It is absolutely confidential. It also involves data gathering.

2. VIRTUAL EXPERT NEGOTIATION:

This door involves very powerful effective communication process. It provides direct expert “Silent Engagement” with the parties. It develops parties’ interest, needs and helps strike an acceptance.

3. MEDIATION

This involves the engagement of a third party Neutral who virtually engages parties remotely and facilitates communication using effective professional skills and patterns to transform the dispute to a consensus.

1. EVALUATION:

This process develops multiple options and creates a pathway when mediation stalls.

5. Arbitration and other Dispute Resolution Adjudication Mechanism

It means ultimately the ICMC ODR Platform provides an end to disputes between parties. Through this process, if parties are unable to reach an agreement of their own, then through consensus, a third Professional Neutral or Body can help pronounce a binding resolve that will be acceptable to all. We are excited to bring access to Justice for all.

Proactice Process of the ICMC ODR

Our Online Dispute Resolution process uses the “NIB IN THE BUD” concept in the escalation of conflict. It stops a concern from growing into a crisis. It suggests that people do not need to wait for a problem to become a crisis before they can file their issues. Once they sense that a problem is developing, they can quickly file and have the expert help tailor emerging problem into a safe landing.
